    Ok children its the late shift here on ba dus Settle down easy back there and get some rest. Its gonna be a long week waiting for the festivities...but let's try not to wish our lives away...time's fun when you're having flies or something like that any way Well she was an American girl  Raised on promises  She couldn't help thinkin' that there  Was a little more to life  Somewhere else  After all it was a great big world  With lots of places to run to  Yeah, and if she had to die  Tryin' she had one little promise  She was gonna keep  Oh yeah, all right  Take it easy baby  Make it last all night  She was an American girl  It was kind of cold that night  She stood alone on her balcony  She could hear the cars roll by  Out on 441  Like waves crashin' on the beach  And for one desperate moment there  He crept back in her memory  God it's so painful  Something that's so close  And still so far out of reach  Oh yeah, all right  Take it easy baby  Make it last all night  She was an American girl

    The times they have a CHANGED. It's not time for evening tea and catching up with thee... I must decide what's to go underneath, and what's to be packed up above with me (and J.A. and the Lady. And maybe a white horse...?) on a train that's only slightly delayed... This and that. That and this. Tote's packing list says nothing of such divisions! xoox

    I was staying at the MarriottWith Jesus and John Wayne I was waiting for a chariot They were waiting for a train The sky was full of carrion "I'll take the mazuma" Said Jesus to Marion "That's the 3:10 to Yuma My ride's here..." The Houston sky was changeless We galloped through bluebonnets I was wrestling with an angel You were working on a sonnet You said, "I believe the seraphim Will gather up my pinto And carry us away, Jim Across the San Jacinto My ride's here..." Shelley and Keats were out in the street And even Lord Byron was leaving for Greece While back at the Hilton, last but not least Milton was holding his sides Saying, "You bravos had better be ready to fight Or we'll never get out of East Texas tonight The trail is long and the river is wide And my ride's here" I was staying at the Westin I was playing to a draw When in walked Charlton Heston With the Tablets of the Law He said, "It's still the Greatest Story" I said, "Man, I'd like to stay But I'm bound for glory I'm on my way My ride's here..." C'mon Toto.....the Emerald City is right over there.....

Can't speak for Kris, never met the man......but grew up in Queens, had beers with Joey and their second drummer Marky Bell aka Ramone at CBGB after Tommy left....low maintenance....and chill....did not take themselves seriously at all. In my mind there is no cage match Katniss.... All Gods children sing in the choir, some sing low and some sing higher.... Let's all beat on the brat with a baseball bat with Sunday morning coming down..... I miss Joey, Johnny and Tommy beddie bye Boze time here..... It's a Blitzkrieg Bop....

Even if the pretty b*tch does have me dragging flats of plants in & out the damn garage. I'm patient for July; I love Spring with her lilacs, sugar-magnolias, green-grass perfume and a driveway overflowing with the spoils of one's greenhouse hunts. Life's too short to wish it away.

I was told June 10th or thereabouts by GDTSTOO in early March shortly after the TM debacle...they "wanted people to have tickets in hand by mid June" but it's all assumption until one of us gets them

I'd expect them to send out SC tickets first. But then again ticketing hasn't gone exactly as expected so far...

Mayor Klangstone needs to release all his e-mails to the public and give full-disclosure of shady dealings at the Klangstone Foundation. We never have heard anymore about the 75 missing tickets.

As Mayor I have only one request from you. Don't wear the hot pants. They didn't go over so well last time. Mr. Haney's ex got just a little bit too excited and the town meeting REALLY got out of hand as a result. We don't want that again, so please...no hot pants. Another election already???? Man time is accelerating at an alarming rate...
